Career

Helmut Kalthoff worked as an employee at the Preußen Münster office from 1969 . In 1973 he went to VfL Osnabrück as assistant coach from Klaus-Dieter Ochs . After his dismissal in April 1975, Kalthoff took over the team as an interim coach until the end of the season. In the 1975/76 season he was head coach of SpVgg Bad Pyrmont in the then third-class league. In 1976 he obtained his license as a soccer teacher , but gave up his post with the Lower Saxony at the end of the season and instead became manager of the second division Wuppertaler SV from 1976 .

In March 1979, Kalthoff returned to VfL Osnabrück as a manager and took over the team from April 1979 also temporarily as head coach, from February to August 1985 he also supported Erhard Ahmann in training.

In February 1986, Kalthoff took over the managerial position at Hannover 96 . The club was in the middle of a relegation battle as a newcomer in the Bundesliga and the new coach Jörg Berger couldn't turn things around with the unsettled team. After a 3-0 defeat at 1. FC Köln Berger resigned from his position and Kalthoff also took over the post of head coach for the remaining seven games, but could not avert relegation as bottom of the table in the second division. In the following second division season 1986/87 the team succeeded under the newly signed coach Jürgen Wähling, although the promotion, the contract with Kalthoff was not extended.

It was not until 1989 that Kalthoff took over a managerial position at SV Darmstadt 98 , which he gave up at the end of the season. Since then, Kalthoff has concentrated on his work as a freelance consultant.

The non-profit Helmut Kalthoff Foundation ( HKS ), named after Kalthoff, was founded in 2000, and the well-known manager Reiner Calmund assumed the chairmanship of the board of trustees. With the foundation's purpose of sport, the foundation offers, among other things, scholarships for participants in the football teacher course at the Hennes-Weisweiler Academy who were not professional footballers themselves, and examines ways to optimize the football league structure.
